Chemical Engineering Process Fundamentals

By Vincent James

Chemical Engineering Process Fundamentals" offers an indispensable, comprehensive exploration of the fundamental principles and practical applications governing modern industrial operations. It systematically introduces the handling and mixing of particulate solids, delving into their characterization, bulk behavior, and various separation techniques. The text then transitions to the critical domains of fluid mechanics and transport phenomena, elucidating fluid flow principles, pressure drop calculations, and the design of essential fluid-moving equipment. Readers will master the intricacies of heat transfer operations, from conduction to radiation, and their application in designing efficient heat exchangers, alongside a thorough understanding of mass transfer operations crucial for purification and separation processes like absorption and stripping. Furthermore, the book elucidates chemical reaction engineering, covering kinetics and reactor design, and advanced separation methods including distillation and membrane technologies. It integrates process thermodynamics for energy balances and optimization, while also detailing process control, instrumentation, and systematic approaches to process design and economic evaluation.
